"That Others May Live", the HH-3E Jolly Green Giant was used in many (behind enemy lines) rescue missions. This HH-3E of the 71st Special Operations Squadron (normally based at Kirtland, NM) was seen at Davis Monthan AFB (AZ) during an exercise. The helicopter was placed in storage at nearby AMARC several years later, in 1992. In 1995 it was sold to the Tunisian Air Force as L82-105/TS-SRE.
